Now fixed.

Glad it all worked out. I checked this end and he did go to Khasab as planned. As I say in the brief you need to be aware of your wingman and fly at speeds with him in mind. It can be surprising how quickly you can run your wingman’s fuel down if he is using a lot of afterburner to catch up with you.

Hi Sorry not allowed to talk about the agreement with ED. Hope you enjoy the campaigns

HI Unfortunately tracks do not work in DCS especially for a longer mission. Have you got a Tacview of the mission. Tacview files are much more reliable. (Tried to use the Track file but it broke quite quickly) Did you spend a long time trying to kill the bandits. Just checking he didn’t run low on fuel so couldn’t make it to Khasab. AI does this sometimes. Does this happen every time? Any information as to the engagement will be useful. I will have a look to see what the issue is. Thanks for the heads up.

Hi Thanks for the kind words. Yes it is a continuous story line from the free ‘Serpent’s Head’ to ‘Serpent’s Head 2’ and the ‘Rise of the Persian Lion’. ‘Rise of the Persian Lion 2’ is in the works now and continues Lieutenant Scott Rivers, “Ford”, exploits.

Yes the channel has been left at 336.0

Hi Thanks for the heads up. ED changed the way the new Stennis model was being introduced last minute so had a very short time to re-update all my campaign missions. Missed this variation of mission 3 sorry. Will correct it for next update. Cheers.

Hi Yes, just checked it out. It only occurs on this mission and in the easy version and only the none supercarrier version. All the other versions are fine. ED changed the way the new Stennis model was going to be issued quite late on so only had a short time to update all my missions and the four variations of each. This one unfortunately slipped through sorry. Have corrected it now and will be in next DCS update.

Never been asked for this before. Don’t see why not so will get them included in next DCS main update. Thanks for the suggestion

Sure, I added ACLS to all my campaigns last update

Yes. Channel 336.0 is currently for the Automatic carrier landing system. When you switch the DL on you need to press the DL button a second time and set on for a second time. This will then switch on the SA data link. Hope this helps.

Should be fine ? Confused.

Hi Just checked out all Mission 13 versions. The ABE is set to 127.5 and Ford 110 aircraft Pri ( COMM1) channel 4 is also set to 127.5. Also checked base mission and worked ok for me. How far were you away from the ABE?

Thanks. Think it is down to AI and ability to hit targets. Truth is you cannot depend on AI to always hit their targets especially if it’s a key the mission progression. So need fail safes which I have now added.

Hi Assamita There is an issue with the mission. It appears recently the AI is not doing as it should. This due to recent DCS updates. I have now fixed this and it has been submitted to ED. It will be in the next DCS update which will be soon. Hope this helps Badger633

HI Ice Yes something in the AI has changed. I have already dealt with the problem and the fix will be out in the next update. Badger633

Hi I am updating them ready for next DCS update. Trouble is I don’t know when that is as it’s up to ED. Sorry can’t be more precise.

Thanks, will take a look and get it resolved for next update. ‘Rise of the Persian Lion Two’ is on it’s way. Glad your enjoying the campaign. EDIT Now fixed

Hi Guican Yes this has been raised by others. So today have been updating the mission with a safety mechanism if the DCS AI fails to do it's job. This then won't break the mission. There has been a lot of recent DCS AI updates that can cause new problems in previous working campaign missions. Suppose the mission makers golden rule is ' never rely on AI to do something critical in a mission'. Will be in next DCS update.

Hi Cpt. Weber Yes this has been raised recently. So today have been updating the mission with a safety mechanism if the DCS AI fails to do it's job. This then won't break the mission. There has been a lot of recent DCS AI updates that can cause new problems in previous working campaign mission. This will be issued in next DCS update. The truth is the mission makers golden rule is 'never rely on AI to do something critical in the mission' . Glad your enjoying.

OK will check it out and get it sorted for next DCS update. Badger633

OK will look into it. Which mission type are you playing. Normal or EZ refuel or Harder. Probably due to to DCS updates. Does it happen every time? You can check by letting the mission run but don’t start your aircraft. You can then speed up time and see if they kill the SAMs. Thanks for the heads up. Badger633

Well on the way with this follow up campaign. Need some voice overs, playing the part of an American F18 pilot. If interested, please PM me. Thanks Badger633

Absolutely! Was waiting for the boat specific codes but will include in the next update anyway. Unfortunately too late for the imminent one. Cheers Badger633

Hi No problems always welcome a heads up, if possible I can then get them fixed. Cheers Badger633
